Urban Farming and the New City Food System

Informações:

Synopsis

Authors David Hanson and Edwin Marty, and photographer Michael Hanson, took a short bus than ran on biofuels (sometimes) across America, and came back with a story of urban farming projects happening in the most incredible circumstances. Their new book, Breaking Through Concrete, chronicles the beauty and determination of people in twelve cities who participate in their food system in ways of their own choosing. From raising livestock in Detroit to rehabilitating contaminated soil in Philadelphia, readers will see city dwellers of all ages and ethnicities bringing life and health to urban centers that were once paved over. Tune in as we ask David and Edwin some of the lessons they learned on their journey and where they believe the urban farm revival is headed in the coming years.
